The client with a cold has experienced perforation of both tympanic membranes in response to blowing his nose vigorously. He asks his nurse if his hearing will be affected permanently. What should be the nurse’s response?

B.   “No, antibiotics will help resolve the infection and cure your hearing impairment.”
C.   “Yes, and it will be important for you to learn to lip read or use sign language as soon as possible.”
D.   “Yes, any time the eardrum is ruptured it will form a scar and cause some degree of permanent hearing loss.”
